Energy Mapping in Southern Africa

This image shows areas that have access to electricity in mid and southern Africa. United Nations uses images like this to map areas that do and do not have access to electricity. They also are able to use this imagery to tell if areas have strong access to electricity or if areas are only using a slight amount by how strong the brightness is. This is important because it shows what areas still need power if they are to achieve their goal of global energy by 2030.
